Had my one month post op today. Overall they are looking good and healing well. Patience! Right one is higher and tight he said. Doing too much, right handed, and the muscles are still tight. I am to massage lotion on them twice a day. Lefty looks good but still has some more softening to do. He said it could take a couple months to completely soften up and drop. Took pictures today to compare when I go back in 5 weeks and see what progress I am making. I am not to wear any tight sport bras. The Danskin ones or a cami with the shelf bra is fine until I see him again. Nothing pushing the girls up or squeezing them in. I can tan now but have to put baby sunscreen on my incisions for the next year. So I bought that in the chapstick form :) Dental work can be done now but need antibiotics to prevent an infection in the blood stream which can cause capsular contracture. Sleeping back on my side and even stomach sometimes too. I noticed yesterday, since it was 10 degrees outside and I was shivering that when the muscles flexed the implants moved around and that caused some discomfort. Overall I love my new girls and feel fine now. I can do pretty much everything but I shouldn't so I heal faster and muscles loosen up. Now its just the waiting game!

Forgot to ask you how in the world you managed with Christmas right after your surgery??! #youarearockstar
January 23, 2013
Surgery was on the 20th. We ending up having family gatherings at my house on 23,24, and 25. I didn't have to cook for two of them and the other one my sister did majority of it and I directed from kitchen table. The rest of the time I sat in the recliner. Two of the get togethers no one knew I had surgery at all so I was up and ready and sitting in recliner before they got here. Overall it went very smoothly since I also had all shopping and wrapping done before hand :).

You look great!

You look amazing, perfect size! I have a question about the gel you used..Did you rub that all over your breasts daily after surgery? The Arnica gel, was not sure how to use it.
January 23, 2013
Rub it all over breasts and sides. Avoid incisions. I started as soon as I got home from surgery for a little over a week, 3 times a day and never had bruising and not too bad on swelling.

Hi. I plan to get saline also. Not too many people on this site with saline so I was just wondering how happy are you now that you chose saline? I'm 5'3 117lbs. I'm a 34b wanting to be a full C. Dr suggest 350 fill to 375. I hope that's not too big. Are you happy with your size? Thanks

One month tomorrow! Happy anniversary to the girls! No real changes. I tried to go grocery shopping alone and though I did it, it was not pain free and comfortable. I didn't even get that much. Guess it's back to date night at Walmart for a few more weeks. No issues doing anything else though. Right one is a little tighter still. Waiting on drop and fluffing. Dr on Tuesday. Will update then and post photos.

Looking forward to your update on your 1 month follow up! I haven't tried on any real bras yet so I still have no idea what size I am right now. Maybe I should do that soon. I threw out all of my old VS push up bras the other day...it felt good to know that I didn't need them anymore. I can't wait to try on bathing suit tops...so exciting! I hear you about the grocery shopping...I had a hard time the other day too. I find myself trying to do too much and ending up having to call my parents for help. Not so much because I am in pain...just seems like things take so much more out of me still. Hopefully we will be back to normal soon! It's tough to take it easy when you have kids! Thanks for the tip on the Danskin bras...I love them!

All is well, seems alot longer than 24 days since surgery. Just waiting for them to drop fully and fluff. Left one is squishy and right one is slowly getting there but has dropped a little more than the left. I tried on 34D bra from VS and they fit perfectly. I took it out of the bag and thought it looked huge and could fit on my head. LOL Odd trying on a bra with no padding. Was looking around VS on Saturday and found myself in the 34A/B section, old habits I guess. Woke up on my stomach the other morning. No pain at all just freaked out and had to check the girls in the mirror and make sure they were okay. Wish I would have done this years ago. Recovery wasnt bad at all. Will post new pics at my one month and update again after my next post op appt on the 22nd. Good luck to all with upcoming surgies and happy healing. Xoxo
